Eastern Kentucky moving toward energy efficiency
November 21, 2009 10:47 AM


Eastern Kentucky University's efforts at making a more energy efficient campus are about 75 percent complete, school officials say, with a goal of being done by the spring of 2010.



Eastern Kentucky University associate vice president for Capital Planning and Facilities Services James Street said the project is already beginning to show results, a year after it started.

Street told The Richmond Register the school's utility bills are dropping and when the project is over, the school's $6.4 million annual utility budget should shrink.

Upon the project's completion, he says the energy savings will be equivalent to preserving 227 acres of forest land, taking 6,229 cars off the road and preventing 179 rail cars of coal from being burned.
